Richard Branson
Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson (born 18 July 1950)
is an English industrialist, best known for his Virgin brand of over
360 companies. Branson's first successful business venture was at
age 16, when he published a magazine called Student.[1]
He then set up an audio record mail-order business in 1970. In 1972,
he opened a chain of record stores, Virgin Records, later known as

With his flamboyant and competitive style, Branson's Virgin brand

and expanded the Virgin Records music label. Richard Branson is the
236th richest person according to Forbes' 2008 list of billionaires,
with an estimated net worth of approximately $4.4 billion USD.[2]
